Working in Appleton
Blades Building is a family-run Ltd company based in Westbrook, Warrington, with over 35 years in the trade. Appleton sits about 3 miles south of Warrington, reached via M56 J10 and A49. Most properties we look at here are 1960s–80s detached with generous gardens, and the housing type genuinely changes how a job is planned — access for steel and skips, ground conditions, and how new work ties into the existing structure all follow from it.
Andy visits personally, and there is no call centre in between. If a project is not realistic in your property, we will say so.
